aw, man. did you really get a hatch. hatches are stupid ugly. the only way to redeem yourself for that is to lay it on the ground to take away from the giant rear end.

I like the black one better. Never been a fan of the new body style, something about it makes me think Ford Focus hatchback and it just... :th_sick1:

Nice pick up. Those newer WRXs are dynoing STi numbers from what I hear.

This one's a 08 STI :D

However, not everything is what it seems. I'm gonna let this one run for a bit though :P

The wagon mafia will be at your house shortly to beat you.

I like both forms, I would take either one. I like how they gave the WRX muscles on the outside.

The new Impreza model looks wimpy and like a cheap car...they killed it

Does it have one of the bad motors with the wrong bearings? I heard all 08s and early 09s all had to have their motors replaced because they used the wrong bearings.

It's actually the piston ringlands that the newer cars have trouble with. In 07 they had to change the tune to meet new emissions standards and a lot of cars experience a lean condition under high boost, and people have been blowing ringlands left and right since. All of the 07+ cars (and even some 06's) have the potential for this to happen.






However, that's not the case.

It's not my car, it's a friend's. He dropped it off for me to detail over the next week or so. I decided to troll some of my friends so I figured I might as well post here too :P

At the end of the day, the joke's on me because this is an awesome car. The interior is leaps and bounds ahead of mine, and I absolutely love WRB on gold BBS wheels. I stalled it in my driveway 3 times trying to move it into the garage because it has a stage 2 clutch and a lightweight flywheel, feels nothing like my car at all.

I can't express how much I love this color, especially when it's clean. It's absolutely stunning.

Sweet jesus... are those the two turbos behind the grill? Staring down the turbos makes me want to turn and run
